Chapter 120 Governance
Three days have passed. In the past three days, Li Rumeng has been staying in the big room exclusive to the patriarch and hasn't gone out even once. He keeps absorbing the ubiquitous atmosphere of heaven and earth in the world.
In fact, two and a half days ago, Li Rumeng's giant body had regained all its strength. Absorbed some natural and local qi, and this energy was integrated into the giant's body, which completely restored the exhausted power in his body, and even increased slightly.
But Li Rumeng was not satisfied with this. He tried to absorb more natural and local atmosphere into his body. Since these heavens and earth are endless and are of great help to practice, Li Rumeng naturally wants to absorb more heaven and earth.
However, soon, Li Rumeng found that his giant seemed to be able to absorb only some of the spirit of heaven and earth, and could not infinitely absorb and use the ubiquitous energy of heaven and earth. This giant is like a container. It can only hold the natural and local atmosphere at one time. If it reaches the limit and continues to forcibly absorb the natural and local atmosphere, it will not only have any benefit, but will destroy itself.
As ordinary people say, 'Too much is not enough' refers to this situation. Although the atmosphere of heaven and earth is good, it is essentially an energy, and it is a powerful energy. Of course, there are many benefits if it can be used, but once it exceeds the limit of its own endurance, it will be counterattacked.
There was no progress in using the spirit of heaven and earth, so Li Rumeng had to turn all his thoughts on how to transform all the giants in the tribe into his followers.
Li Rumeng already knows that it is a dangerous thing to transform a creature into a believer. When accepting the faith of believers, an inadvertently will hurt his own soul and soul.
However, Li Rumeng is not too worried about these things. He knew that the mysterious perfect crystal in his body could help him wash the power of believers' faith, so he didn't have to worry too much about being corrupted by the power of faith.
What's more, in terms of Taoism cultivation, Li Rumeng has cultivated to the same level as possession. He can divide his own mind and spirit. When the power of faith after washing and purification is integrated into Li Rumeng's ontology, he can divide his own spirit into many different parts, each spirit and heart. After integrating the beliefs of a believer, these beliefs are finally completely transformed into their own strength.
After transforming the power of faith into its own power, the power of faith of all giants is fully integrated into one, no longer separated from each other, and there will be no possibility of conflict. The memory of believers will be transformed into Li Rumeng's knowledge, and the emotions of giants will be transformed into Li Rumeng's perception of the world. Since it has become a part of Li Rumeng, of course it will not cause any harm to him.
However, it is absolutely difficult to transform this kind of giant, which is simple-minded and even almost brain-like, into faith. Because if you want to transform the giant into a believer, you have to completely change the giant's heart and thinking, so that they are willing to give everything, which is equivalent to depriving the giant of everything, including freedom and the right to life and death.
It's easy to kill a giant, and it's definitely a huge challenge to turn giants into believers. In the last three days, Li Rumeng only reluctantly turned the beautiful women of the three giants and four old giants into believers, and they were also the kind of shallow believers. Strictly speaking, they were not real believers.
However, even so, Li Rumeng has gained a lot of benefits. After having seven believers, Li Rumeng had a faint spiritual connection with these seven believers. As long as his heart moves, Li Rumeng can even feel everything about the believers. He can assimilate the experiences of these seven believers, as if these seven believers have also become the host of Li Rumeng's parasite.
Among other things, in this way, there are seven more life experiences of giants in his heart, and he can feel everything about the seven believers at any time. Li Rumeng feels that his wisdom is slowly increasing and constantly growing, and his heart becomes more and more perfect after his wisdom grows.
Originally, Li Rumeng wanted to continue to forcibly cross the rest of the giants like this, but found that the crossing of the seven giants had reached its own limit after becoming his own believers. It is not that it can no longer be crossed, but that if more believers are added after accepting the power of the seven believers, then too much power of faith. It will hurt his heart.
As long as you think about it, the belief power of believers is integrated into themselves, which is equivalent to forcibly tolerant of the spirit of another creature with their own heart. A carelessness may make you insane, and the risks are self-evident.
What's more, in three days, the prey brought back to the tribe have been eaten up by the giants in the tribe, and there is nothing to eat in the tribe. Three days ago, nine giants, including the warrior belonging to the witch doctor Carmen and the body of the giant Li Rumeng, brought back a large amount of prey. If it were a hundred ordinary people, I'm afraid one or two would not be able to eat so many things, but the giant consumed a lot of food every day.
Therefore, hunting has become an eternal topic in the tribe, and it is also one of the most basic and important tasks of the tribal leader. If you can't get enough food for the tribe to consume, even the most powerful leader will not be recognized by the giants.
Although Li Rumeng has now been recognized by all the giants and has become a nominal leader, his foundation is unstable, because he only obtains the status of the leader through bloody means, and does not really make all giants agree from the bottom of his heart. If he wants to take the position of leader, he must at least solve the food problem. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the giant warriors will take the opportunity to riot and boycott.
And Li Rumeng not only wants to be the leader of these giants, but also wants to be the belonging of these giants' beliefs. Then he not only wants to help the giants solve the problem of survival, but also makes the giants rely on him. Only in this way, perhaps over time, the rest of the giants will gradually become his followers.
Let the giant automatically generate faith in Li Rumeng, which is different from forced crossing. The automatic conversion of believers is at least a real believer, not a forced shallow believer or pseudo-believer. For true believers, the power of their faith is much purer. Almost all the power of faith is piety to the person who is believed, and they can integrate into the person who is believed almost without too much obstacles.
This is exactly what Li Rumeng intended. He intends to make about a hundred giants in this tribe automatically believe in himself. In that case, Li Rumeng believes that his cultivation realm will definitely break through again and reach the same level as ghosts and immortals. At that time, his body must become more magical, so he can use the mystery of the body to help the parasitic giant reach a higher level.
Li Rumeng's current body is just a spine bone. It is impossible to practice martial arts and Taoism by himself. He can only constantly improve his own realm and then help the host practice. But in contrast, all the achievements of the host's practice will naturally be obtained.
Travel hunting is a sacred and important thing for this primitive giant tribe. This tribe is at the junction of the death desert and the 100,000 mountains. The environment is bad. Hundreds of miles to the west is the terrible death desert, and to the east is the 100,000 mountains full of real primitive forests, among which terrible beasts are intertrated.
Even if the giants at the martial arts level go deep into 100,000 mountains, they dare not say that they can absolutely ensure their own safety. In this group of beasts, evil beasts lurking and poisonous hundreds of thousands of mountains, except for gods, who can say that he can be absolutely safe? You should know that there are not only unsceptible beasts in these 100,000 mountains, but also many saints among the beasts: holy beasts, and the real holy beasts are absolutely terrible.
Thinking of the holy beast, Li Rumeng thought of the giant snake that died in vain. This giant snake is his first believer, but the best kind of absolutely devout believer. It's a pity to die in vain like this. Not to mention that this giant snake is a semi-holy beast, which is more powerful than the giant warriors in this tribe.
If the giant snake becomes a real holy beast, it will be ten times more powerful. What's more powerful is that once it becomes a holy beast, it can open up the special ability and inheritance power of its own race and become more terrible. Even the martial saint is nothing in front of the holy beast, but is very likely to be killed by the holy beast, even a giant. The same is true of Wu Sheng in China.
Therefore, hunting is a dangerous thing. There must be not many opportunities to get prey at will in the dead desert like three days ago. Even if it is once in a while, no matter how many people go, they can only get food for three days, because no matter how much prey is brought back, there is no way to preserve it, and it will naturally break down over time. This tribe has no skills to keep prey. They are just a group of primitive giants. Being able to keep food for about three days at extremely high temperatures is the limit they can reach.
In other words, this tribe will go out to hunt once in three days at most, and it must be the elite of the clan. As the leader, Li Rumeng has to take the brunt and lead the clan to hunt completely. This is the basic requirement for governing this tribe.
